His mischief shall return upon his own head, and his violence shall come down upon his own scalp.

LORD tries the righteous man, but his soul hates the wicked man and him who loves violence.

Destroy, O LORD, divide their tongue, for I have seen violence and strife in the city.

No! In heart ye work wickedness. Ye weigh out the violence of your hands in the earth.

He will redeem their soul from oppression and violence. And their blood will be precious in his sight,

Therefore pride is as a chain around their neck. Violence covers them as a garment.

Have respect to the covenant, for the dark places of the earth are full of the habitations of violence.
